Holden Commodore VXR review – some of the people
Holden Commodore VXR review – New Zealand It’s hard to please everyone. After all, aren’t we all supposed to as unique as a snowflake? Aside from our physical appearance, size, shape, looks and so on, our tastes differ, attitudes range (often quite severely), dress sense, what we opt for in terms of entertainment – I […]
Polo Beats review – Beats city traffic
Polo Beats review – New Zealand Volkswagen have (quite literally) turned up the bass and the base on their Polo with the Beats model, fashioning their popular, and now all-new compact car, into a four-wheel Dr Dre beatbox, and yes I did say beatbox. For those of you unaware of the global phenomenon that is […]
Honda Odyssey Review – A People Smoother
Honda Odyssey Review New Zealand There is one question that anyone that owns a people mover dreads and that is ‘What car do you drive?’ Aside from the fact that the question itself is generally laced with more hooks than a deep sea trawler, it often causes the owner of said vehicle to question how […]
Modern Day Family Values
Ferrari GTC4Lusso T Review New Zealand It seems to me that modern day family life is not only getting unbelievably busy but it’s also getting more and more disjointed. What used to be a weekend, is now a series of ‘events’ and what used to be interaction, now seems to be a group of people […]

(Well ok, three if you add in the Cabriolet) Mercedes-Benz E 400 Review New Zealand Apparently, there are Saloon people and there are those that have a penchant for the styling of a Coupe, Mercedes-Benz New Zealand figured they’d let me decide what MY preference was by letting me review two E400 models, back to […]
Lexus CT 200h F-Sport Review – the 150-volt shock you want
Lexus CT 200h F-Sport Review New Zealand I’d like to think that I am pretty open-minded, that I embrace change, or accept that time doesn’t stand still, I’d like to think that. However, in reality, I have a tendency to have a more conservative approach to things. I don’t enjoy change for change sake and […]
Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Review – MancavE
Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S Review New Zealand In my not so humble opinion, the idea or concept surrounding a mancave is essentially, escape. It’s a place to call your own. You can ‘design’ it yourself (and by that I mean fill it with every toy and gadget you can lay your hands on), turn up […]
Ford Mondeo ST Wagon Review – Easy to click with.
Ford Mondeo ST Wagon Review New Zealand (Well, for the most part). What seems like an age ago, I was lucky enough to be invited to the Australasian launch of the all-new Ford Mondeo and was suitably impressed. With its new design inside and out, coupled with tech and safety advancements, what’s not to like? […]
Diamond geezer – Range Rover Velar Review
Range Rover Velar review New Zealand In cockney terms, a diamond geezer is a type of good bloke, a stand-up man, an all-round good sort, in other words, the Range Rover Velar. For as well as the Velar hailing from the UK, being a ‘bit of awright’, driving well and having some blinding good tech, […]
Top Cat – Jaguar F-PACE 25D R-Sport Review
Jaguar F-PACE 25D R-Sport Review New Zealand As a kid, the coolest cat I remember was Top Cat or T.C to his close friends. Sporting a Mauve pork pie hat and waistcoat, he and his gang of alley cats (Benny the Ball, Choo-Choo, Brain, Fancy-Fancy & Spook), ruled Manhattan from their home base in Hoagy’s […]
